If someone besides God wrote the script that defined the redemption of all of creation, they probably would use different methods than the ones God chose. But God’s ways are not our ways, and neither are his methods.

Why do we sometimes feel we can’t hear God? It isn’t because God isn’t speaking, it’s because we’re not hearing. In the midst of all the other hopeful and hurtful messages we hear every day in our world, the greatest message ever told is being spoken directly to you.

Pride can take many forms, but it never has a good ending. King Nebuchadnezzar’s pride led him into a living a nightmare. Maybe all we need is to look in the mirror, ask Jesus to help us discover our pride, and allow repentance to help us avoid a similar nightmare in our own lives.

On social media, big city walls, and heartfelt letters, people share who they are in the stories they write. God expresses Himself and tells us that we matter by writing His own beautiful story on our lives.
